“Any team that tries to go toe-to-toe with them and attack them runs the risk of conceding goals because they have such quality.

"But we have the players we have and we think they are best suited to playing the way we have been playing, so we won’t have much option I’m afraid than to try and do against them what we have been doing.

"That might make it an entertaining game for the neutral, but it could make it a tough game for us with the quality they have in the final third.

"We are going to face another task like the one we faced [against Arsenal], but we will do our best and we will give it a go.”
